MENACE Combat Preview - Intro, Tips and Tricks, Thoughts
31After the ~5 hours livestream I already learned a lot about MENACE - Now I'll give you tips and tricks, and show you how I do one mission (Secure an outpost) and we'll learn some new things together along the way - Including things not to do!
Let's play MENACE Combat Preview DEMO. In this video, little intro to the combat preview demo, explaining game mechanics and playing through one mission. I tried to make this quick and short, but you know me, overexplaining everything in-depth and slow-paced - Enjoy 90 minutes I guess!
The Combat Demo Preview is RELEASED today (September 29th, 2025), so stop watching my video and play it yourself!

ABOUT MENACE
MENACE is a new game coming from the developers of Battle Brothers. It's turn-based, but other than that, it's not at all like Battle Brothers, so anyone expecting "Battle Brothers in space", MENACE is not that. But more than that, I don't know yet, so join me on Sunday when we take a deep, slow-paced look on the combat preview demo of MENACE, which will let us play a 3 procedurally generated missions, picked random from a pool of 10 missions.
